** A Latin American dub aired on various tv channels across South America during the 90's but the show's license was discontinued on the early 2000's (the las reported aired was on a Chilean channel called TVN during the summer of 2001) and the dub became lost. Wasn't until 2021 when a mexican Mega Man was able to track down various VHS recordings of the show from different countries and save the audio, making a good chunck of the dub available once again after years of rumors.

* PopCultureUrbanLegends: A long-standing rumor was that a third season was planned that would more closely follow the games, introduce Bass, and have Proto Man make a HeelFaceTurn, but [[https://siphersaysstuff.tumblr.com/post/8519989554/joerubyinterview according to Joe Ruby]] the show proceeded as scheduled with two seasons and Bass was just a rumor.

** An earlier pitch for the series featured a much more faithful {{Anime}} art direction inspired by the Japanese artwork of the games. ''Anime/MegaManUponAStar'''s first episode, "Appearance in Japan," would've been a VerySpecialEpisode. From that OVA, Gregory Smith and Kaj-Erik Erikson were intended to play Mega Man and Proto Man respectively, while Light and Wily kept their voices for the final product.
